Limiting Heavy Rare Earths Reliance for Neodymium Magnets

The growth in demand for neodymium-iron-boron (NdFeB) permanent magnets to maintain magnetic performance at high temperatures led to the inclusion of heavy rare earths such as dysprosium and terbium.  The addition of these elements increases the coercivity of NdFeB i.e. it allows the magnets to operate at higher temperatures without losing their magnetic properties. The…

Understanding Magnetic Permeance Coefficient

Firstly, it is important to understand that the maximum working temperature of a NdFeB magnet is not defined by the material grade! It is essential to calculate the magnetic permeance coefficient to establish what grade of material you need. The two examples compare the same magnet but with different thicknesses, one at 30mm and one at…
